Ok. I've got a bit further with is. If I enable CONFIG_YAFFS_DOES_ECC
in my 2.6.18-rc5 build (it was enabled in the 2.6.16.5) then I can at
least mount and boot from the yaffs partition. I'm a bit surprised by
this - YAFFS and MTD handle ECC usage differently?
However although I can boot I still get lots of errors:
yaffs: dev is 32505860 name is "mtdblock4"
yaffs: Attempting MTD mount on 31.4, "mtdblock4"
block 4320 is bad
block 7547 is bad
block 8136 is bad
block 10184 is bad

These errors seem consistent over boots - certainly a subsequent boot
has exactly the same chunks/blocks listed for the first dozen or so
errors (I didn't check the rest).
